Many streets in Baie-Comeau are named after famous persons in the history of Québec and Canada. But this one stands out.
During the Seven Years War (known as the French and Indian War in the United States). General Wolfe commanded the British troops in the Battle of the Plains of Abraham in Quebec City in 1759. General Montcalm commanded the French Troops.
History books tells us that the British won the battle, but both generals lost their lives during the battle.
Here they meet again, on a street corner in Baie-Comeau, Québec.

Beaucoup de rues de Baie-Comeau sont nommés d'après les personnes célèbres de l'histoire du Québec et du Canada. Mais celui-ci se démarque.
Pendant la guerre de Sept Ans. Le général Wolfe commandait les troupes britanniques lors de la bataille des plaines d'Abraham à Québec en 1759. Le général Montcalm commandait les troupes françaises.
Les livres d'histoire nous dit que les Britanniques ont gagné la bataille, mais les deux généraux ont perdu la vie pendant la bataille.
Ici, ils se rencontrent à nouveau, sur un coin de rue à Baie-Comeau, Québec.
